Parser Tuning
Example

We'll be using the Bro sensor in this parser tuning example.

We started with a single partition for the inbound Kafka topics and eventually worked our way
up to 48 partitions. And we're using the following pending value, as shown below. The default
is 'null' which would result in no limit.

storm-bro.config

```
{
...
"topology.max.spout.pending" : 2000
...
}
```

And the following default spout settings. Again, this can be omitted entirely since we are
using the defaults.

And we ran our Bro parser topology with the following options. We did not need to fully match
the number of Kafka partitions with our parallelism in this case, though you could certainly
do so if necessary. Notice that we only needed 1 worker.
